A HOME MADE HARROW.

The rear ends of the beam are secured
by Il piece of timber, two by one and a
half inches, halved on to the beams and
then bolted. The harrow is made of two
and n half by two and II half inch scant-
ling, using hard, durable wood. There is
nothing particularly new about this har
row, except that it is larger than COM
mon, and the novel way of hitching to it
by which it is kept steady. The teeth can
be made to cut six inches or one inch
apart. The manner of hitchng is shown
in the engraving. The draw bar is made
of three eighths by one and three-quarter
iron, three feet four inches in length.
The chain is attached to this by hook at
one end, the other being fastened to the
harrow by staple. The chain is about
two feet long. The entire cost is about $12.
